ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a toilet to which twin protrusions having an egg shape are formed.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In general, when a user wishes to discharge excrement on the conventional toilet seat of the toilet bowl, excrement including hard feces and hard agglomerations in the rectum of the user are discharged through the anus of the user by applying strong respiration pressure in the abdomen of the user.
When the strong respiration pressure is applied in the lower abdomen during evacuation on the toilet seat, the old and the weak who have a weak rectum, patients who have geriatric diseases or patients who have been recently operated on at the outer and inner regions of the abdomen can be dealt a fatal blow to their bodies depending on their condition.
Accordingly, easy evacuation of defecation for the above disabled or ill persons is required in the normal respiration pressure state without application of strong respiration pressure to the abdomen.
For evacuation, some people use various medicines or remedies intended to make evacuation easy. However, such medicines and remedies cause various side effects and complications.
Further, hard feces or hard agglomerations accumulated in the rectum of the user ferment, and give rise to various diseases, and paralysis of the rectum can be produced due to evacuation troubles for agglutinated residues and hard agglomerations in the rectum.
Accordingly, efficient discharges for excrements such as accumulated residues and hard agglomerations in the rectum must be carried out by cyclic motions of the rectum when in inclination on the stool, as disclosed herein. The invention allows those unable to properly evacuate to be easily evacuated by the cyclic motions of the rectum without taking various medicines or other remedies, and without application of strong respiration pressure in the abdomen, while remaining in the normal respiration pressure state.
In order to overcome defects as described above, an object of the present invention is to provide a toilet seat of a toilet bowl, in which twin protrusions having egg shapes are integrally formed on a backward tail end central region of the seat by an injection molding process. The seat enables easy evacuation or defecation by the person physically unable to defecate.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a toilet seat of a toilet bowl having twin protrusions with each protrusion having an egg shape, in which a prearranged prevention may be made for various diseases such as an aneurysm, fainting, stroke or the cerebral vascular burst produced by rising blood pressure which is often experienced when a strong pressure through respiration is applied in the abdomen by a person for evacuation or defecation. The toilet seat enables an easy evacuation made in the normal respiration state without application of strong pressure for respiration in the abdomen.
Further, an additional object of the present invention is to provide a toilet seat for a toilet bowl having twin protrusions with each an egg shape, so that excrements including hard feces and hard agglomerations accumulated in the rectum of a user may be easily discharged through the anus of the user by repeating compression and relaxation motions for the gluteal muscles of the user without application of strong pressure though respiration in the abdomen of the user when evacuating.
Finally, an object of the present invention is to provide a toilet seat of a toilet bowl forming egg shaped twin protrusions, in which a person may easily and suitably evacuate while on the seat of the toilet bowl, without application of strong respiration pressure in the abdomen of the person who remains in a normal respiration state.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a toilet seat for a toilet bowl which comprises a toilet seat, a lid cover protecting the seat, and connections which are to be operated by mutually connecting backward tail ends of the seat and the lid, wherein twin protrusions each having an egg shape are integrally formed on a backward tail end central region of the seat by injection molding with thermoplastic resins, and the lid cover is formed with a curved surface in order to protect the twin protrusions.
The egg shaped twin protrusions as major structures of the present invention, comprise a left protrusion and a right protrusion. The twin protrusions have top surfaces thereon, a front groove formed in a front direction between the left protrusion and the right protrusion, a rear groove formed in a rear direction between the left protrusion and the right protrusion, and a boundary surface formed by the grooves between the protrusions.
Further, a front structure of the twin protrusions is formed on the central region positioned at an angle of 75°. In addition, a rear structure of the twin protrusions is formed on the central region positioned at an angle of 85°.
The front and rear structure of the twin protrusions preferably are not at a vertical position on the central region of the seat in view of an evacuation posture of a person using the toilet bowl.
The protrusions
2
a
and
2
b
each have a symmetrical structure and can be formed with a hollow state. However, interiors of the protrusions are, preferably, fully filled with thermoplastics or thermoplastic resins, when molded by an injection molding.
While the seat
1
and the protrusions
2
a
and
2
b
are molded by the injection molding, they may be formed by other known methods.
The protrusions according to the present invention enable easy evacuation by being formed in the most suitable manner for an evacuation posture of the user on the toilet bowl so that the user maintains normal breathing (or respiration) during evacuation.
Accordingly, top surfaces
11
of the protrusions
2
a
and
2
b
each have contact surfaces for gluteal muscles on gluteal regions of the user during the evacuation. Optimum conditions which contact the top surfaces with the gluteal muscles of the user are as follows.
The top surfaces
11
each are formed with a circular arc having an angle of 180°. When the gluteal muscles of the user are each compressed on the top surfaces
11
, a compressed depth of each gluteal muscle must be at least the same height of the protrusions
2
a
and
2
b
. Each top surface
11
has a circular arc of 180°.
By providing such optimum conditions on the top surfaces
11
, an upper body of the user can repeat forward and backward motions on the top surfaces when the user is seated on the seat of the toilet bowl
13
. The forward and backward motions are similar to motion in a rocking chair. By the repeated motions of the upper body of the user, a lower region of the rectum of the user is compressed and then relaxed.
Accordingly, various types of excrement in the rectum of the user are changed from an accumulated state into an active state. Thus, with various excrement including hard and loose feces in the rectum of the user in an active state, the excrement is easily discharged through the anus of the user.
The physical pressure, as obtained by the forward and backward motions of the upper body of the user on the top surfaces is considerably greater than the pressure applied in the lower abdomen or belly of the user by breathing (or respiration). Thus, various excrements accumulated in the rectum of the user may easily be discharged through the anus of the user.
Each of the protrusions having an egg shape preferably have the following details:
1. The height of the protrusions preferably are each in a range of 1 inch to 2 inches. When the protrusions are formed by injection molding, the height of each protrusion is controlled to conform to the thickness of the gluteal muscles of the user.
2. When the gluteal muscles of the gluteal regions of the user contact the top surfaces, the muscles can be alternately compressed by the compression and relaxation motions.
3. When the gluteal muscles of the user are compressed by the weight of the user on the top surfaces of the protrusions having 1 inch in height, the
